Starting from a well-known extension of the GPSR protocol to multicast, reduced bandwidth consumption is obtained by performing clustering estimation of the destination group and by considering each cluster as a single node for packet forwarding. As the new protocol limits the number of packet replications, network efficiency is improved. When real-time multicast traffic is carried, the packet delivery ratio is increased without noticeably affecting end-to-end delay. We study the performance of our protocol through simulation, with a simulator implementing a full MAC protocol. This allows to measure the performance in bandwidth-limited scenarios and to validate the results","PeriodicalId":325797,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE 17th International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129753801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the distortion caused by frequency and time selectivity of the fading channel, both ICI and ISI exist in an FMT system and cause performance degradation. By using a per-channel equalizer at the FMT receiver with sufficiently large number of equalizer taps, the ISI can be mitigated significantly, but the ICI still exists. In this paper, the effects of the interference caused by the time-frequency dispersive channel is quantified by analyzing the average system carrier to interference (CIY) ratio of the FMT system under different fading conditions. A closed-form expression for the C/I ratio and its upper bound are provided for the FMT system, which lead to a better understanding of the trade-off between spectral efficiency and system performance degradation. Moreover, comparisons between FMT and OFDM systems under the same channel conditions and spectral efficiency are also provided.

The fresher the estimation, the higher the probability to reach the destination. In such a class of solutions, it is fundamental that accurate estimations of nodes' positions be disseminated throughout the network in order for the forwarding algorithm to converge in a reasonable time and with as few hops as possible. In general, dissemination is done following uniform distributions. In this paper, we argue that coordinate dissemination should rely on measured parameters (thus adaptive to the network conditions), such as the mobility of a node. We investigate the impact of node locality on the performance of dissemination algorithms and propose a new algorithm that adjusts the dissemination level of a node's coordinates based on the displacements of the node.

A high pathloss is generally expected for channels with rich scattering, suggesting that a high SNR and rich multipath are competing goals. The current work investigates this issue based on measurements obtained with a 16 times 32 MIMO channel sounder for the 5.8 GHz band. The measurements were carried out in various indoor scenarios where different sizes of both the transmitter and receiver antenna arrays are investigated, 1 times 1 up to 16 times 32. A moderate correlation between pathloss and median capacity was found. However, the higher richness can not compensate for the decrease in capacity due to increased pathloss. Assuming a fixed Tx power, the median capacity was found to depend approximately linearly on the pathloss. The slope of the linear relation depends on the effective rank of the channel, which in turn was found to be approximately linearly dependent on the number of antennas, assuming a symmetric MIMO channel","PeriodicalId":325797,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE 17th International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126687215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, if a tight frequency reuse is employed, intercell interference must be properly handled. In this paper, we propose a cross-layer approach to the interference management, by using a random beamforming strategy and a smart scheduler with joint processing of signals related to different users in the network. Random beamforming is performed at each base station of the system, partial CSI is collected and shared by the network of interfering transmitters, and a scheduler chooses a subset of the users to be transmitted to. Optimization of beamforming in broadcast MIMO channels is precluded by the amount of feedback and complexity required. In this paper we propose to reduce the feedback by employing a random beamforming where a stream can be linearly preceded before being transmitted on the antenna array of each transmitter and the users with channel/interference matched to the beamforming configurations are scheduled at each time. In MIMO system the users can further improve the overall throughput by minimizing the co-channel interference. The feedback necessary to employ the spatial multiplexing can be limited to the signal to interference ratios for a subset of users that are compatible for the random beamforming configuration. In practice, a form of adaptive frequency reuse is performed on the basis of the spatial signal-to-interference ratio distribution among the users. We provide numerical results to compare the performance of our scheme with a form of dynamic channel allocation and opportunistic beamforming","PeriodicalId":325797,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE 17th International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127046981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
